As mentioned. It is practically necessary to spend up to 1 hour or more a day with him for several weeks to get him used to you. Also, feed him outside of the enclosure. This will create a bond. Everytime you want to feed him, put him in a tote or other container. After a while, he will come to you and expect to be picked up and brought to his food. He will not see you as food, but rather the person he needs to go to for food.
